You will “never be good enough to…” if you don’t change your mind. We discuss chasing “I thought I would be happy when” thoughts. “if you are having a sex life problem get help, don’t just assume it is your weight” We discuss black and white thinking when it comes to weight and hear Dr. Hart’s journey. “A sex therapist is always the answer” – but it isn’t always covered in Canada or the US – here are some tips if you can’t access a therapist. We discuss mindfulness, our ANTs (automatic negative thoughts) and the flaws in logic about our thinking about our body. “Body positivity is a journey, not a goal” “Muscles are associated with longevity and health – and they weigh a lot.” “We can and should be healthy – we shouldn’t focus on the scale” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kj-casperson/message Learn more about your ad choices.
